Dear Students,

GCSE Subject Guide 2019

GCSE Subject Guide

This guide is designed to ensure you will make informed GCSE choices. Please note: Subject information contained in this guide is correct at the time of publication. Changes to the content of courses may be made in the interests of the students and in the light of advice from examination boards. The blocking of subjects for timetabling purposes is dependent, to a large extent, upon student choices. We will endeavour to be as flexible as possible with subject combinations, but timetabling constraints and group sizes may make some subject combinations impossible. In this situation, students may not be able to follow their preferred combinations of subjects. The Principal reserves the right to withdraw subject options which do not attract viable numbers of candidates or which result in staffing permutations that cannot reasonably be achieved. If demand for a subject is beyond the number that can be taught in one set it may be necessary, for staffing reasons, to limit numbers in which case the School will select those who are to be offered places for that subject.

From Year 9, all students receive regular independent careers advice and guidance, with a range of one-to-one interviews, small group discussions, and larger themed presentations. External speakers, particularly former School students, visit regularly to give inspirational talks and seminars, and meetings are arranged for those students who wish to join the Army, Royal Navy / Royal Marines or the Royal Air Force.

Choosing your subjects

Key Stage 4 Curriculum

The Key Stage 4 curriculum at the School follows National Curriculum guidance and offers a wide range of academic subjects leading to GCSE qualifications.

1. Core exam subjects studied by all GCSE studentsMathematics, English Language, English Literature and Science.

2. GCSE optional subjectsIn addition to the core subjects, students can choose from a wide variety of optional subjects. These will vary, depending on the student and their personal learning pathway. Usually, four optional subjects are studied.

3. Choosing your optional subjectsStudents are asked to select one subject from each of the four option blocks indicated on the option choice form.

4. Non-exam subjects studied by all GCSE studentsAll students follow non-examination courses in Religious Studies as well as the Personal, Social, Health and Economic Wellbeing Education programme (PSHEE). They are also expected to participate in weekly games sessions and the Combined Cadet Force (CCF) programme.

The English Baccalaureate demonstrates a measure of achievement across a core of selected academic GCSE subjects as recognised by the Government. This does not require any additional work; it just means students who study the following GCSEs and secure grade 5 or above in all of the components will achieve the EBacc:• English Language • Mathematics • Science (combined Science or separate Sciences) • A humanities subject (Geography or History) • A Modern Foreign Language

CareersProvision

The English Baccalaureate (EBacc)

Notes about students’ choicesAll students should choose at least one of the following subjects: Geography, History, Computing, French, Spanish, Triple Science (only for selected students).Plus, three other subjects from the following list to provide balance and breadth to studies: Textiles Technology, Resistant Materials Technology, Computing, Business, Art and Design, Drama, Dance, Music, Physical Education, Food and Nutritional Studies, Photography or Religious Studies. In order to gain the EBACC qualification, students should choose one Modern Foreign Language (French or Spanish) and one humanity (History or Geography). This is not compulsory. French and Spanish courses are designed for those who have already studied the language; not for beginners. It is possible to study both History and Geography.

2

Core SubjectsEnglish Language

The English Language course is designed to develop a student’s ability to write effectively; making controlled use of grammatical structures and purposefully employing literary techniques; read, understand and respond to texts from a range of contexts; and confidently present ideas orally.

Students will develop their reading skills via exposure to a wide variety of high quality and challenging texts from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. They will explore literary conventions and, as a consequence, learn how to manipulate their linguistic register for different audiences and purposes.

AssessmentEnglish Language assessment is via two evenly weighted and un-tiered examinations.Paper 1: Exploration in Creative Reading and Writing engages students in an unseen literary fiction text from the 20 or 21st century, demanding an analysis of how established writers use narrative and descriptive techniques to capture the interest of readers. In Section B, students will be asked to produce their own creative response for a designated audience, purpose and form; inspired by a given scenario and demonstrating their own narrative and descriptive skill.Paper 2: Writers’ Viewpoints and Perspectives develops students’ insight into how writers communicate their perspectives on issues and themes that are important to the way we think and live our lives. For Section A, students are asked to critically compare the viewpoints expressed in two unseen, linked texts from different genres and contexts. The second part of the paper requires students to write for a specified form and audience; communicating their own perspective of the theme previously introduced to them.

English Literature

This qualification exposes students to a wider range of literary texts, acquiring knowledge of the best that has been thought and written. Studying GCSE English Literature further encourages students to read widely for pleasure, and as a preparation for studying literature at a higher level.

AssessmentEnglish Literature assessment comes in the form of two closed book examinations.Paper 1: Shakespeare and The 19th-Century Novel is worth 40% of the final grade, requiring students to write in detail about an extract from a previously studied Shakespeare drama. In Section B, students will answer one question on a novel of their choice, analysing how writers use form, language and structure to shape meaning.Paper 2: Modern Texts and Poetry is worth 60% of the final grade and commands that students answer one essay question on a studied modern prose or drama text. For Section B, students will study one cluster of 15 poems taken from the anthology Poems Past and Present. The poems in each cluster are thematically linked and written between 1789 and the present day. Students must be prepared to write a critical essay on any poem in the cluster. Finally, Section C examines students’ ability to independently analyse an unseen piece of poetry, exploring comparative links to poems in their individual repertoires.

Mathematics Examining Board: Edexcel

The assessments cover:1. Number 2. Algebra 3. Ratio, proportion and rates of change 4. Geometry and measures 5. Probability 6. Statistics

• Two tiers are available: Foundation and Higher.• The qualification consists of three equally weighted written examination papers at

either Foundation or Higher tier.• Paper 1 is a non-calculator assessment; Papers 2 and 3 are calculator assessments.• Each paper is 1 hour and 30 minutes long. • The content outlined for each tier is assessed across all three papers. • Each paper has a range of question types; some questions will be set in both mathematical and non-mathematical contexts.• Students need to commit many more formulae to memory than has been previously

required. • The qualification is graded and certificated on a nine-grade scale from 9 to 1 using

the total mark across all three papers, where 9 is the highest grade. Individual papers are not graded. • Higher tier: grades 4 to 9 (grade 3 allowed). Foundation tier: grades 1 to 5.

Combined Science: Trilogy

Most students will study Combined Science which is taught by specialist teachers through a practical basis in order to engage students. Our laboratories are all furnished with interactive whiteboards to support teaching and learning.

Across the two years, students study seven topics in Biology including infection, cell biology, homeostasis and ecology. In Chemistry, 10 topics are studied including energy changes, rates, organic and quantitative chemistry. In Physics, students study eight topics including forces, energy, waves and electricity.

A number of compulsory practical investigations are also set by AQA, and these can be examined in any paper. The final GCSE is worth two GCSE grades.

Biology, Chemistry and Physics

This course is offered to our most able and conscientious scientists. It covers all of the Combined Science work with some further depth and additional topics for each separate Science. There are also more compulsory practical investigations set which can be assessed in the final exam papers. This subject provides an extra challenge at GCSE and helps bridge the gap between GCSE and A Level Science.

Compulsory Subjects (non exam)

Personal, Social, Health and Economic Wellbeing Education (PSHEE)

PSHEE covers topics which can be classified under three core headings: Health and Wellbeing, Relationships, and Living in the Wider World. PSHEE contributes to personal development by helping students to build their confidence, resilience and self-esteem, and to identify and manage risk, make informed choices and understand what influences their decisions. It enables them to recognise, accept and shape their identities, to understand and accommodate difference and change, to manage emotions and to communicate constructively in a variety of settings. Developing an understanding of themselves, empathy and the ability to work with others will help students to form and maintain good relationships, develop the essential skills for future employability, and better enjoy and manage their lives.

Running alongside all of this are strong links to whole year group workshops and weekly tutor time discussions. This allows for targeted work to be carried out with students while also allowing all to participate in a supportive manner.

Religious Education

All students follow a short, non-examined course in Religious Education. This is designed to maintain their awareness of how religion, philosophy and morality can be applied to contemporary issues. Students are encouraged to participate in engaging debates, so they can understand a range of views, and learn to respond with a reasoned and persuasive contribution of their own.

Optional Subjects History History aims to develop an interest in and an enthusiasm for the study of the past.

This course has been chosen to provide the students with a broad understanding of the History of Medicine from 1250 AD to the present. We also study early Elizabethan England 1558 - 1588, and Modern World units that look at Germanyfrom 1918 - 1939 and Superpower relations 1941 - 1991. The course content offers something which should interest everyone.

AssessmentThe course is assessed by examination of all four units. The assessment weighting is 100% examination.

GCSE History at the School will provide an excellent introduction to the development of historical skills; it will develop knowledge, concepts and skills which have a wide-ranging transfer into the world of work and life generally; and it will form a first-class foundation for following our A level course.

Religious Studies

Religious Studies tries to answer the ultimate questions in life. It enables students to think critically about ethical and philosophical questions, and to develop informed opinions of their own.

Across two years, students build a robust understanding of two contrasting religions: Christianity and Buddhism. In addition, they develop their ideas about tough contemporary issues: relationships and families, peace and conflict, crime and punishment, human rights and social justice. Students also sharpen their analytical and critical thinking skills by arguing about ultimate questions: the value of human life, and the existence of God.

Lessons place an emphasis on debate and discussion, and then on written work that helps students translate their views into reasoned arguments. Those who wish to make an impact on the world will discover this is the ideal subject to nurture the crucial skills of listening and persuading.

AssessmentComponent 1: Study of Religions (50%)Beliefs, teachings and practices of:• Christianity• BuddhismComponent 2: Thematic Studies (50%)Four of the following religious, philosophical and ethical studies themes:• Theme A: Relationships and families.• Theme B: Religion and life.• Theme C: The existence of God and revelation.• Theme D: Religion, peace and conflict.• Theme E: Religion, crime and punishment.• Theme F: Religion, human rights and social justice.Each of the two components is assessed by a written exam lasting 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Geography GCSE Geography tackles the big issues facing the world. It provides students with relevant and interesting knowledge about differences across the world today and looking to the future as well as a useful skill set for investigation and presentation.

In the Physical Geography part of the course, there is a great emphasis on topicality, for example the tsunamis of Japan and Indonesia, flooding in Tewkesbury and how towns around the coast are trying to deal with the impacts of rising sea levels and reduced budgets. Students analyse case studies and develop skills of problem-solving, and researching as well as their environmental awareness.

In the Human Geography part of the course, cities with problems of rapid growth, including Mumbai and Nairobi are studied alongside older cities like London and Birmingham. Issues arising from the world’s ever increasing population and the movement of people are studied together with the changing levels of world development. Why are some countries rising in wealth and importance while others slowdown in terms of improving quality of life?

There are several days of local fieldwork, supporting work covered during the course and collecting data for the geographical skills paper (Paper 3). Preparation for this paper involves collecting primary data on the field trip days and then presenting, interpreting and evaluating that data. This provides excellent opportunities to gain skills in ICT, data handling, GIS map skills, statistical analysis and report writing.

AssessmentPaper 1: The Physical Environment (35%)Paper 2: The Human Environment (35%)Paper 3: Geographical Skills and Fieldwork (30%)There are no controlled assessment requirements.

Modern Foreign Languages – French and Spanish
